Things is an excellent todo list manager. I particularly like the Projects feature. And the fact that it syncs seamlessly with the Mac application, makes this iPhone app a delight to use.

Ok, for anyone needing to know:

To insert variable prompts into your snippet, you can simply type:

$${MY VARIABLE NAME}

…in the position in your snippet code where you need this variable to appear – when inserting the snippet, you’ll be prompted for the variables, etc.

Thanks!

You’ve mentioned both that you can specify variables to be “filled-in” when inserting a CFEclipse snippet, and using a CFEclipse snippet as a template for an Actionscript Class: would you be so kind as to be more specific with an example, or could you point to some resources explaining the steps – I would be grateful!

Thanks

Comment on Using p4merge as a git mergetool by SooTyLaD

SooTyLaD — Fri, 08 Jan 2010 15:59:48 +0000

I have 3 questions regarding this if you don’t mind?

1) After I “Hit return to start merge resolution tool (p4merge)” it pops straight up with this:

2010-01-08 15:50:36.269 p4merge.real[58490:80b] Can’t open input server /Library/InputManagers/Inquisitor

Any idea what this is and whats wrong? the editor still starts and all seems well but things like this bug me :p

2) despite having trustExitCode set to false, it doesn’t ask me if the merge is complete like it would with say vimdiff?

3) i have used both sets of keepBackup settings (both set to false, in fact, everything is as above) but if still leaves pesky .orig files in my working directory… any ideas?

I have a feeling these are linked, could anyone shed some light? Also quite interested to see the authors answer to W. Andrew Loe III’s post?
